About Hill House
Hill House is a four-bedroom detached house in Chappel, Colchester, Colchester (CO6 2DX). It has a recorded floor area of 321 m² (around 3451 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 40). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in November 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 321 m² the property is well over the postcode median (73 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £1,165,000 is 24.6% above the 2009 sale price.
